This attempt is the only one after that time, so let us see what is the outcome this time. In my view, lot of old Flickr ID holders would have migrated to Yahoo by this time in order to use other integrated services from Yahoo in addition to Flickr…remember Single Sign On! And other fact which favors this integration is itself mentioned by the post –

We’re making this change now to simplify the sign in process in advance of several large projects launching this year, but some Flickr features and tools already require Yahoo! IDs for sign in — like the mobile site at m.flickr.com or the new Yahoo! Go program for mobiles, available at http://go.yahoo.com.

Moral of the story is – make people slowly transit from one service to other if they are reluctant to sudden change :).
